KOTEX GOD OF BLOOD posted:Good luck with this, people who have never heard anything other than a $15 t-amp from eBay hooked up to musty garage sale 70s speakers via coathangers love to post here about how anything more expensive is cable crystals-level snake oil. I think the argument is more that beyond a certain price point it's all snake oil because the amp is effectively perfectly transparent. I don't know what amps they use in high end recording studios for monitoring, but I'd say spending much more money than they do (when the quality of their product literally depends on the quality of the sound coming out of the amp) is going to be a waste. sebmojo fucked around with this message at 20:13 on Nov 11, 2018 |

Based on that link the top end amp (benchmark AHB2) retails for $3k.

Music is a time continuum from start to end which when broken is irreparably damaged, and no amount of clever manipulation can restore it to its original time / frequency / amplitude duration or relationship, regardless of what the theorists may tell you. As a result, we have developed a way of excluding or bypassing all these corrective measures, to allow the conversion from digital to analogue to be done without any manipulation whatsoever. All we do is to reformat the data stream to allow the converter chip to be able to interpolate the incoming information correctly. In other words, the Fifth Element / Fifth Force has no over sampling, no jitter reduction, no noise shaping and no re-clocking. Having removed all of the digital filtering that is required for over sampling, all filtering is done in the analogue domain where it is easier to retain good, wide band phase-frequency and dynamically coherent behaviour. It uses the highest grade Analogue Devices AD1865, 18Bit stereo converter chip solely because we found it to be the best sounding available (yes, even better than the 20Bit versions).

High end audio uses XLR because if *studios* use XLR, then XLR must be the superior connection. signals are gentle, timorous creatures you must make no sudden movements or even facial expressions in the vicinity of a signal lest it retreat to its burrow for another long yuleyear
